The Story: This subject is quite rare and exhibits one of the most extreme sexual size dimorphism known in any animal near its size or larger. Females may reach 2 m (6.6 ft) in length, whereas the males are 2.4 cm (1 inch). The weight ratio is at least 10,000:1, and can probably reach as much as 40,000:1
